health & spORts CluBs | sun lakes lIfestyles | nOVeMBeR 2014 | 33 Hey billiards players; do you enjoy the game of 8-Ball? If so, come on down to our Billiards Room any day except Sunday and practice with members of the 8-Ball Group. New players are more than welcome to join in. We usually arrive around Noon and play until 2:30 pm or so. We 'pea' for partners and play to improve our 'game.' Competition is friendly, and helpful hints are common-place, as we're there to learn on those practice days. It's a bit more serious on tournament days. Every Thursday we host three matches here and one match at an away location nearby. While the competition is still friendly, there are no suggestions for improvement during these matches! If you want a more serious game, join a team and play in our tournaments. Cost is $15 for a three-month season. For more information, contact Steve Felber at 769-6898 or SNFELBER@ yahoo.com. It was a busy summer and the warmer weather was not a deterrent to the faithful Pickleball and Paddle Tennis players. With fall in the air, and cooler weather, the courts are once again bustling with even more players. Our First Annual Mixed Doubles Club Championship Tournament was played in early August and could not have been any more exciting. The finalist teams of Jim Hodgson and Debbie Pritchett vs Elmer King and Heidi Kliewer was close throughout, but in the end, the team of Heidi and Elmer squeaked out a narrow, and exciting, finals victory to earn the prestigious title of Mixed Doubles Champions of Sun Lakes. Other participating teams included: Bridgette Greb and Royce Newman, Gary Kyler and Nick Caputo, Sharlene Horn and Hank Huisman, and Carol Ellis and George Kilmer. A special thanks to our tournament director, Les Ebner, for setting up the pairings, tournament schedule, and supervising this tournament to make this happening so very memorable for all our participants. A celebratory party was held on Sept. 12 at the North Clubhouse and catered by Tacos & Beer with a delicious variety of Mexican dishes. Pickleball is played every morning at 7:30 am, Monday through Saturday. New players are always welcome and equipment can be provided for loan. Paddle Tennis regular scheduled play is Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday at 7:30 am, and Tuesday and Thursday evening at 7 pm. Hours of play change with DST. Club membership dues are $10 annually and further information can be obtained by contacting Royce Newman 769-1103.
